Transcript
00:00 [Chanting]
00:05 Before Uber started making avatar or making provisions at Gatwick,
00:09 they were taking about 25% of our work.
00:12 But now, they're taking about 50% of our work.
00:15 And as I say, I work 12 hours a day, 6 days a week,
00:18 and I'm doing 3 jobs a day, and it's affecting most of the drivers.
00:22 People have got mouths to feed, they've got to pay their mortgages,
00:25 and Uber are making provisions.
00:27 They shouldn't be here, they're not licensing programs,
00:30 therefore they should be out of programs.
